Fast Algorithm for the 3-D DCT-II

摘要

Recently, many applications for three-dimensionalud(3-D) image and video compression have been proposed using 3-D discrete cosine transforms (3-D DCTs). Among different types of DCTs, the type-II DCT (DCT-II) is the most used. In order to use the 3-D DCTs in practical applications, fast 3-D algorithms are essential. Therefore, in this paper, the 3-D vector-radix decimation-in-frequency (3-D VR DIF) algorithm that calculates the 3-D DCT-II directly is introduced. The mathematical analysis and the implementation of the developed algorithm are presented,udshowing that this algorithm possesses a regular structure, can be implemented in-place for efficient use of memory, and is faster than the conventional row-column-frame (RCF) approach. Furthermore, an application of 3-D video compression-based 3-D DCT-II is implemented using the 3-D new algorithm. This has led to a substantial speed improvement for 3-D DCT-II-based compression systems and proved the validity of the developed algorithm.
